Games aren?t just brought to life by the developers, but by the actors that bring their likenesses and performances to the characters in the game. The technology that allows actors to do full performance capture has continued to expand, and 2019 was another landmark year of incredible performances across a number of genres. Death Stranding gets two nods, but it?s far from the only game with phenomenal performances this year. It was tough to narrow this one down to the nominees, and even more tough to pick a winner, but only one performance can win the award for the year. Here are the PlayStation LifeStyle nominations for Best Performance in a Game in 2019.

Ashly Burch (Parvati) ? The Outer Worlds
Courtney Hope (Jesse Faden) ? Control
Norman Reedus (Sam ?Porter? Bridges) ? Death Stranding Sam Witwer (Deacon St. John) ? Days Gone
Tommie Earl Jenkins (Die Hardman) ? Death Stranding
